Earlier this week, it was revealed that despite saying all the right things, the Senate Intelligence Committee has yet to take the most basic steps necessary to conducting an investigation into the Trump campaign’s possible collusion with Russia in last year’s election. Now, however, President Obama’s former Ambassador to Russia, Michael McFaul has an idea of how to help.

Despite the many alarming ties between Trump’s campaign and the regime of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Senate committee has not only failed to schedule interviews with key players, they have yet to hire any full-time investigators.
